Product details
Overview
TDA8029HL/C207 from NXP Semiconductors is a single-chip, low-power smart card reader IC integrating an 80C51 microcontroller (16 kB ROM, 256 B RAM, 512 B XRAM), ISO/IEC 7816-3 UART with T=0/T=1 protocol support, programmable card clock up to 20 MHz, and DC-to-DC converter for 2.7–6.0 V input. It delivers EMV-compliant card activation/deactivation sequences and operates in portable card readers requiring robust contact-based transaction handling.
For engineers reviewing the TDA8029HL/C207 datasheet, TDA8029HL/C207 pinout, TDA8029HL/C207 application, or TDA8029HL/C207 equivalent, key selection criteria include its embedded 80C51 core with dedicated ETU timing hardware, ISO7816 UART with automatic convention processing, shut-down current ≤20 μA, VCC slew rate control (0.05–0.22 V/μs), and LQFP32 package compatibility with card interface layout constraints.
Technical Context
The TDA8029HL/C207 implements a dedicated 24-bit Elementary Time Unit (ETU) counter for precise Answer-to-Reset (ATR) timing and T=1 protocol block guard time (22 ETU) and T=0 guard time (16 ETU). Its ISO7816 UART supports MOVX-accessible register mapping, character-level error management, and variable baud rate generation via Timer 2 in baud-rate generator mode.
Power architecture includes a configurable DC-to-DC converter (doubler/tripler/follower) driving VCC with controlled rise/fall times, plus independent sequencer for automatic card activation (<225 μs) and deactivation (<100 μs). The embedded 80C51FB core enables wake-up from Power-down mode on falling edges at INT0_N, INT1_N, or RX with integrated delay counter-critical for low-power polling in battery-operated readers.

| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SLB9670 | Trusted Platform Module (TPM) with integrated smart card controller; lacks embedded 80C51 and standalone card sequencing logic | Designed for PC platform security, not portable card readers; requires host OS driver stack | Select only when TPM functionality and cryptographic acceleration are primary requirements over low-power standalone operation |
| ST21NF08 | STM32-based secure microcontroller with ISO7816 peripheral; no dedicated ETU counter or hardware sequencer | Requires firmware implementation of EMVCo timing sequences; higher BOM cost due to external crystal and regulators | Prefer when application demands ARM Cortex-M real-time processing alongside card interface, not pure low-power reader function |

FAQ
What is the maximum crystal frequency supported by the TDA8029HL/C207?
The TDA8029HL/C207 supports an external crystal frequency up to 27 MHz on XTAL1, enabling card clock generation up to 20 MHz via internal frequency division. This allows full compliance with EMVCo 4.3 high-speed transaction requirements while maintaining stable oscillator operation across -40 °C to +90 °C ambient temperatures.
Does the TDA8029HL/C207 support both T=0 and T=1 smart card protocols?
Yes, the TDA8029HL/C207 natively supports both T=0 and T=1 protocols per ISO/IEC 7816-3, including automatic convention processing, character-level error management, and variable baud rate generation. Its dedicated ISO7816 UART handles protocol framing, parity checking, and retransmission-ensuring reliable communication with all standard contact smart cards.
How does the TDA8029HL/C207 achieve ultra-low power consumption in shut-down mode?
The TDA8029HL/C207 achieves ≤20 μA shut-down current at VDD = 3.3 V by disabling all internal clocks, analog blocks, and digital logic except the SDWN_N input circuitry. This state is entered via active-LOW assertion on Pin 5 and maintains pin states for fast wake-up-making it ideal for battery-powered card readers requiring multi-year standby life.
What is the role of the 24-bit ETU counter in the TDA8029HL/C207?
The dedicated 24-bit ETU counter in the TDA8029HL/C207 provides hardware-accurate timing for Answer-to-Reset (ATR), Block Guard Time (22 ETU for T=1, 16 ETU for T=0), and inter-character delays (11.8 ETU for T=0, 10.8 ETU for T=1). It operates independently of the 80C51 core, guaranteeing ISO7816-3 timing compliance without CPU overhead or firmware calibration.
Can the TDA8029HL/C207 generate card clock frequencies other than the standard 1 MHz, 2 MHz, 4 MHz, and 8 MHz?
Yes, the TDA8029HL/C207 supports programmable card clock frequencies up to 20 MHz using its internal frequency divider (1×, 2×, 4×, 8×) driven by the XTAL1 input. For example, with a 20 MHz crystal, it can output 20 MHz, 10 MHz, 5 MHz, or 2.5 MHz-enabling optimization for speed, power, or legacy card compatibility beyond fixed nominal rates.
